1. General description

With the Knowledge Trivia application you can create a question and answer contest to evaluate the knowledge of your followers and customers about your brand, products and services. The Knowledge Trivia will allow you to:

• Design the quiz completely tailored to your needs, personalized with photos, texts and videos.
• Combine different types of answers (single answer, multiple-answer and even sortable answers).
• Create as many questions as you want, and indicate which is the correct answer to each of them.
• Enable the summary page to show the participants the correct and incorrect answers and choose if you want them to restart the quiz or go to the registration form.
• Show custom final messages according to the number of correct answers in the Quiz.
• Reward the knowledge of the participants with a final draw among all the participants that have answered correctly the quiz questions.

2. How is the participation flow of the user

What will the user experience be like? The promotion is made up of different pages that the user will find when interacting with the promotion to participate, such as: the initial welcome page, the registration page, where the user will register with their data, the page that presents the questions of the quiz, etc. As a whole, the different pages will make up the structure of the promotion and the flow of participation that the user will follow to complete the promotional mechanics of the promotion.

In addition, as an administrator you can select which participation flow you want users to follow. Specifically, there are three different participation flows: Identified Mode, where the user must identify and register before being able to spin the Wheel; Visitor Mode, where the user first spins the Wheel and then identifies and registers in order to claim their prize; and Anonymous Mode, where the user participates without identifying himself or registering. The choice of one modality or another will determine how the user's participation and experience in the promotion will be.

Learn in this article how each participation flow works, as well as the different pages that make up a promotion.

3. Create the promotion
